[@thenayancat8802]

Holy crap I did not expect this much of a result. Only up to 10 max pullups, but 1 rep max for weighted is up from about 13kg to 23kg (maybe more, haven't pushed it super hard) and 20kg for 3 reps. Core strength is also way up. Climbing 2 grades harder than I was before. 1000% recommend this!

Very nicely explained. Will check in after 8 weeks. Current status can’t do one pull up. Am doing assisted for last one month but obviously no real progress made. This workout of yours gives me renewed confidence.

[@maxmanzhos8411]

I went from 18 to 26 pull-ups in 8 weeks. Starting Aug 26 and finishing today Oct 27. Also gained 8 kg (from 70 to 78, I was doing other minor activities too though, so not just pull-ups). I liked this program because it's quite diverse and I never felt bored. Technique: I don't do perfect form, but I do decent enough, so full down with shoulder blades out and up until chin is over, legs are moving a little and when I go down I get a little bounce up (be careful with shoulders though, warm up properly). Diet: I am skinny and could never bulk up, this time I decided to focus just on protein to get my 70g+ of it (my weight) daily. Proportion was 1 beef to 2 fish meals, so usually 3 in total daily. My secret is to eat just the meat/fish with nothing else and then if I am still hungry finish with whatever I want, so I enjoyed every meal I had! When I tried to bulk up some time ago I was eating too much carbs and the result was just stomach ache and a constant desire to throw up. Over time improvement: Max5: 75 -> 150 Lock-in: 5 -> 9 Pyramid: 13 -> 16 After lock-in training I usually had some strength to train one arm pull ups and hurt my left arm tendon in the process, so I had to stop it and focus just on the program. I don't know if I will continue the program, but if I do, I will probably get a weight vest. As pyramid training, for example, takes about 1hr to complete (with 20s per rep rest increment). --- Raw notes (I rarely skipped a training, so if you see max5 -> pyramid, I just didn't take notes of lock-in. also 1 week I couldn't go to where the bar is, so was doing push ups instead): Aug 25 max5 75 - (6:18pm-6:43pm) + 7-4-2-2 7:04 Sep 2 max5 5:27-5:42pm 40 Sep 7 pyramid pyramid - 13 full 7 finish Sep 10 max5 6:28-35pm: 30 6:35-42pm: 60 (60th hard) 6:46 78 6:49 88 total Sep 14 pyramid pyramid 13 full (9-13 with re attach) + 11 with reattach Sep 16 22 max! new record Sep 18 max5 muscle up!

Love these videos. I tried the 3 sets of 8 pull ups every 2 days and you do negatives for all the pull up you couldn't do. Which for me was all of them starting out. With in two months I was doing all sets of regular pull up, no negatives needed.

What's your progress?

[@martialpanyvino]

8 Weeks later, here i am ! It was really challenging, and i did my best, even though my progress may not seem that impressive. When i started this, i was barely able to do 5 pull ups, but honestly, i did not feel my scapula or lats working... Pull ups were putting pressure on my arms mostly and if i tried to ignore it, my shoulders were always there to remind me how bad my form of execution was. And it was really frustrating, because i was already triyng to do more pull ups several months before this video came out. I'm now able to do 10 pull ups with a decent form, and within these pull ups i mean 7 with a good form, focused on the back, and 3 others a little bit less. I could do some more pull ups, but the quality would then drop too low to be safe/satisfying. For workout A, i went then from 25 reps in 9min50s to 57 reps in 17min50s (and i consider this last workout like a failure, because i went too hard on the beginning, wasting my energy for the last repetitions...) For workout B, i went from 3/4/4/4/4 reps with a medium assisted elastic band, to 5x5 reps without elastic assistance (i added negative front lever to this workout too, even if i'm faaaar from getting it) For workout C, i went from a 37 pull up pyramid to a 53 climbing only pull up pyramid (i'm kinda disappointed because then again it was hard at my last workout to climb higher than 7 reps, after 6 series of at least 4 reps) Today, i don't feel that much strong, but i know that i'm better than i was back then and i want to progress again and again ! I would like to be able to do pull ups with a good form while lesting my body, but that's a far away goal for now.. :) What i think now about this challenge : It's GREAT, because it made me plan how much reps i got to do for several future workout. I had to establish a line to try to respect the most precisly i could, and i knew each time i went to workout, what i had to do (number of reps, what exercise...) Before this i used to only write how much reps i did last workout, but now imma write how many reps i gotta do next workouts too ! Plus, the diversity of workout made it a little bit funnier to follow, like : Oh ! Today is Workout C day, i gotta be strong cause it's the hardest ! (for me at least ahah) However, now i feel like i can train with more freedom, so i'll change my routine for now and i hope it will make me get stronger faster ! I will still train my back 3 times a week, but i'll now try to do classic workouts, because i think i can do enough pull ups to do it ! (Before this challenge, i would have only be able to do 4 series of 3 reps of pull ups, 2 times a week... impossible to make progress) I'll then train classic pull ups and australian pull ups (50 minutes) 2 times a week, and train my negative pull ups and front lever (30 minutes) 1 time a week (also with 2 push ups/dips workout and 1 legs workout / week) For motivating me these 8 past weeks, and inspiring the next weeks, i'd like to thank you a lot for this video, among plenty other good ones, Calisthenicmovement ! Keep up the good work ! :)

I started pull up on August 7, i.e. my birthday. I was 102kg and I was not able to do a single pull up. I started pull up with support of 8 plates i.e. 40kg support. Once I reached 20 pullups in first set I reduced one plate support to 7 and it went on. On November end, I was able to do one pull up without any weight support. And today as on January 17, 2021, I am able to do 8 pull ups. I do 10 sets, 4 times a week with sequence Monday pullups, Tuesday Chinups, Wednesday rest; Thursday Pullups and Friday Chinups and then followed two days rest. 10 sets in each day gave me a lot of endurance. I can do 8 pullups or chin ups in first set and 4 in all the following sets. It makes overall a good count. My weight is reduced go 98kg i.e. still I am heavy but pretty much defined with muscles growth. Why I couldn't reduce weight, because of my eating habits. So far so good experience.

Hey guys! I'm a little bit late since I started the challenge a little late and had to do a week of deload but here's my progress... I started with 10 rep max, 11th was not counted since my chin didn't clear the bar. 8 weeks later, my max is now 16 reps. Had to stop because i was already tired in terms of grip strength/endurance. But I think if I also trained my grip strength/endurance, I think I can reach 17 reps. Just a little side note. I was only training twice a week cause I have to account for my body's recovery speed since I do not have a proper diet nor any vitamins and supplements cause I only come from a poor family. I don't know if my results are great or just normal but hey! any progress is great progress. Hope everyone did great as well in this 8 week challenge. If you have questions just let me know. Cheers!

I would like to join you, guys. Today is 23/08, I'll share my results on 18/10. Currently, my overhand max is 6 reps, underhand - 9 reps. I hope to achieve 15 reps at both grips by the end of this challenge. I wish us all good luck!

Love the star system for rating muscle activation at 3:15. I'm a PT, I might use this myself

[@روح-د9ر]

It took me 1 year and half to go from zero to 8 pull ups, with 1st pull up being the hardest .. took me 1 year

[@rantnhnaketon]

My max pullups are like 4, even though i achieved my first pullup in like 3 days, around 6 years ago lol. Though, i WAS able to do a couple of chin ups already. Yeah i haven't been working out much

[@moustachio334]

Negatives really helped me! Banded pull-ups really help me get a bigger pump in the lats without using the lat machine which isn’t effective for muscle strength I have found

[@michaellukjanow4473]

Exactly what I needed.... You Guys read my mind right? I am in!

[@PlanetBongoSan]

The information on this channel is just fantastic. I've increased my max reps (full ROM, good form pull ups) from 3 - 10 in the last 8 or 9 months following your advice. Together with a select few other channels on this site I think you are making a significant contribution to public health education. Just... Thanks!! 👍 and hi from the UK

[@jaychoulover]

Same, took about half a year for me to get from 0 to 5 then to 12 reps, the perfect pullups look and feel so good to do.

[@PlanetBongoSan]

@@jaychoulover yeah 12 feels good for me now too, for an old geezer who didn't start training til the age of 40 I'm pretty much delighted

[@spur0of0the0moment]

This video was so helpful. I'm at the point where I'm trying to vary my training from the simple 3 sets 8-12 reps. This is just what I needed.

[@n4cedits959]

Insane video bro keep it up loved it really helpful

[@reikers]

I like the progression vids, really useful.

[@calistenicsstrength2725]

Just finished workout A today! I hope I'll see some good progress in 8 weeks!😅💪🏼

[@Hectorenzo]

How did it go? I actually want to start this today :)

[@maxbremer903]

Update us

[@lyzo111]

Thanks, that's just what I needed. Started doing pull ups about 1 or 2 weeks ago, but I don't see that much progress. I will definitely try I out!

[@gonzsori]

I will test myself tomorrow after the 8 weeks I’ve been doing the challenge. I was capable of do 10 pull-ups at the begging of the trial. I will tell you tomorrow my result. I did it and it worked!! Now I can do 17 without problems and I feel that soon I’ll do 20

[@rishablohchab9978]

Your way of explaining is very good

[@imaddaoudi8665]

you are the best bro i was trying to do more pullup , and here you are helping me ❤❤

[@Ben-nl4fo]

Challenge accepted! I can't do one unassisted pull up now. I have 9 weeks before I go back to the office. If I can do one clean pull up before then, I'll be happy.

[@castulo]

Excellent as always guys!

[@whysoserious8832]

I think it's pretty good way to enhance pull ups skill. I appreciate it. I started the challenge from yesterday . I wish you could make a detailed video for six pack abs for intermediates.

[@minomarko5787]

For everybody who can do about 10 pull ups and want to progress i highly recomend you do A type i train like that and it helps me a lot

[@diegowushu]

I wish they'd included how to warm up correctly for pull ups :-/

[@iamandres618]

My warm up was stretching arms and hanging for a couple of seconds until I felt loose

[@LiftYourselfFitness]

Dead hang, Shoulder shrugs, a resistance band or stick to stretch with..

[@yobidayin]

Try checking FitnessFAQs for the shoulder mobility exercises. If you can do that easily, they should be great warmups. Trust me, they're not easy. That should be a great measurement for your readiness for the proper pullups.

[@philipp5528]

I warm myself Up with BAG boxing or Shadow boxing

[@karstux]

Starting this challenge today with a current level of 6 band-assisted pull-ups, and just one unassisted pull-up. I'll update this comment in 8 weeks with my results!

[@sovietunion6109]

Ill be waiting

[@maverator]

Update?

[@sovietunion6109]

yo, how'd it go?

[@rajeshkv4213]

Pull ups are the best workout, better than going for weight lifting

[@helen3289]

Griaß di Alex, vielen Dank für Deine sehr professionellen Tipps, ich übe derzeit die Pull-Ups mit einem Pull-Up Band. Und habe eben Dein Video gesehen, nun bin ich noch motivierter mich darin zu üben, solange bis ich Klimmzüge ohne Band kann. Komisch, als Kind ist mir das echt leicht gefallen und jetzt mit 49 scheine ich es meinem Körper wieder beibringen zu dürfen. Im Übrigen finde ich Eure KZbin Videos echt sehr informativ und vor allem, zeigt Ihr, wie die Übungen richtig durchgeführt werden und welche Fehler vermieden werden sollen. Gerne empfehle ich Euch meinen Patienten weiter, ich arbeite in einer Psychosomatischen Klinik im Oberallgäu und leite dort den Frühsport an und wer weiß, vielleicht komme ich mal zu einem Workshop nach Leipzig oder Ihr kommt mal ins Oberallgäu. Alles Gute weiter hin und „gesundbleiber gell.“ Helen aus dem Oberallgäu

[@AbubakarKhan-gp2dn]

Been waiting for this

[@ahamedeesafaiz4182]

I can do like 3 One arm chinups on one set on gymnastic rings, I follow your mobility program started from the beginning now Im in level 2 to week 3! I feel really great following your program, I have your old programs before you guys recreated your website I had your level 1 program, and IYR (Increase your repetition ) special program. I'll update you about my mobility progression. You guys are great!

[@CarlUsana-o3l]

Hmmm will try this thanks. Now max rep 8 pullups. Ultimate goal is muscle up

[@11Ken]

Best video for beginner!!😎💪🏼

[@svwtsvfcb]

Workout C was the toughest, I started with 1-> 10 -> 1, and ended the 8 weeks program (advanced level) with 1 -> 21 -> 1... Needless to say I am very glad that it finally ended 😂

[@svwtsvfcb]

@Maicon Júnio I was able to do 30 in good form and 40 in bad form

[@yaminisadhanagoli9495]

Make a workout programme on military preparation if you would like to do this give 1 level of level 1 to 5

[@danielkitur4135]

True bro u wanna join the military

[@bradleywalton970]

How’s your progress? I’m also wanting to join the military in a couple of years but right now I can’t do a single pull up. My push ups have increased from 3 to 25 though

[@kushalbista7207]

The blue short and black gym will always remain epic🔥

[@ismaesp3698]

Obviously the content of your videos is great, but the editing is incredible too. What program do you use for it?

[@baransahna4768]

Thanksss for that great video you are the best calisthenicsmovement!

[@prasadsapkal9529]
